Attention to detail in ski finishing is of utmost importance and is critical for this position. Applicant should be comfortable around general woodworking machinery.

While the ideal candidate for this position will have prior ski tuning experience, we will also consider entry level candidates with a strong passion for skiing and a strong mechanical aptitude.

Starting Compensation: $16.00 – $18.50 per hour depending on experience (primarily tuning) - this is starting, not a ceiling. We review performance quarterly in the first year. Expect to reach $21+/hour in 1-2 years.
